- toast0 3y agoSure, the president proposes things for legislature to adopt so he (or she) can sign. Amendments don't touch the President's desk, and the Senate and House get mad when the President meddles in things that are for them alone. If the dream is to pass an ammendment, it might be more effective to form a single issue party, like the Prohibition Party and raise the issue that way. Prohibition passed, but their presidential candidates never had a chance of election.
